Finger-powered, capillary-driven blood diagnostic chip for point-of-care technology

Abstract The current requirement for expensive laboratory equipment and highly trained personnel highlights the critical need for simple, low cost technologies capable of point-of-care (POC) clinical detection, especially in resource-limited regions. In this report, we propose an innovative, ultra low-cost, plastic-based blood diagnostic platform for POC detection that requires only a minute volume (
